Job Summary
In this role, you will manage the system-level integration of a Counter UAS platform, ensuring seamless interaction between mechanical, electrical, and software components.
Your role in the team
- You will own the system level integration of the Counter UAS platform, ensuring seamless interaction between mechanical, electrical, powertrain, propulsion, avionics, software and auxiliary systems.
- This is a highly hands-on role at the intersection of engineering disciplines, with direct impact on system performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
- You will play a key role in de-risking designs, leading integration and verification activities, and supporting the transition to serial production.
- System-level integration of propulsion (BLDC motors, ESCs, batteries), avionics (sensors, data links, antennas, flight controller, companion computer), payloads, mechanical structures, and auxiliary systems (boosters, charging and storage infrastructure).
- Hands-on root-cause analysis and troubleshooting of complex, cross-disciplinary integration issues in close collaboration with mechanical, electronics, and software engineers, as well as external partners and suppliers.
- Definition and implementation of sub-system interfaces in coordination with cross discipline engineering teams and suppliers (wiring, interfaces & connectors, communications protocols, power budgets, thermal management).
- Planning, coordination, and execution of integration, testing, and verification activities across the full product lifecycle—from early prototypes to series-production systems.
- Technical guidance and mentoring of junior engineers during integration, testing, and system validation phases.
